Preparation and characterization of water soluble high molecular weight β-cyclodextrin-epichlorohydrin polymers

Water soluble β-cyclodextrin polymers were prepared from β-cyclodextrin crosslinked with epichlorohydrin under basic conditions. The influence of preparation conditions on the molecular weight distribution has been investigated. The knowledge of this relationship allows for the choice of reaction pa...

Description
Summary:Water soluble β-cyclodextrin polymers were prepared from β-cyclodextrin crosslinked with epichlorohydrin under basic conditions. The influence of preparation conditions on the molecular weight distribution has been investigated. The knowledge of this relationship allows for the choice of reaction parameters according to the desired weight distribution of the β-cyclodextrin polymer. A procedure was developed for the preparation of high molecular weight water soluble polymer ( Mw higher than 10 4).
